    Who makes the best finned valve covers and DUAL finned air cleaners for an sbc? Seen some out there, just dont know which are the best in terms of quality. I am a new to the game, still learning.

    Cal Custom?

    I bought cheap knock-offs on Evil bay for ****s and giggles. So far, they haven't leaked. And they look good too. Don't hate. :)

    if ya got deep pockets the moon tall finned will fit roller rockers and look great. you can get them with the tall breathers. I ran those and the matching air cleaner on my 2 x 4's setup. it looked great (sixties style)

    Not exactly the same setup as yours, but Moon covers are nice.

    at the last mooneyes party i was talking to a fella about their "tall" finned and he said they actually won't clear roller rockers without using the spacer they make. they do look a bit shorter than a standard tall valve cover but i didn't have a tape measure handy to check, perhaps someone can confirm or deny this

    Good to know. The motor does have roller rockers. I have some tall edelbrock covers now. Not crazy about them. They are about 4" tall and clear fine. I will look at moon eyes and vintage. Thanks!
